Anya’s shirt pretty much says it all. Come this July, we will officially be “east siders” when we make the move to Pleasant Hill. About a month ago, Jason & I were very excited to find a
house that we really liked with a huge backyard in a nice neighborhood, so we got busy, sold our house and bought the new one. Although we are not looking forward to the actual moving process, we are very anxious to get into the new place and start getting settled. Here are a few pictures of the new place…but we expect you all to come visit once we are moved in and see it in person for yourself.

Now, to explain the shirt Anya has on in the picture. Good friends of ours, Chad & Jodi, both grew up on the east side of Des Moines. So, because of this, Jason & I have always had alot of fun giving them grief about being “east siders”. So, it was much to Chad & Jodi’s amusement to hear that we were moving to Pleasant Hill, which is east of the east side. So, to celebrate the fact that we are joining their ranks of being east siders, they put this shirt on Anya when they were over at our house last Sunday night when Jason & I were both busy in the kitchen. So, when Jason & I walked in from the kitchen, we see Anya proudly wearing her new shirt. It was a funny moment that we just had to share and kudos to Chad and Jodi for being so clever (just remember, we don’t get mad, we get even !

Otherwise, life has been pretty normal around here. Anya has continued to master the art of crawling and can now do so faster than I can chase her. She is also proficient at “cruising” on the furniture meaning she can pull up and walk the length of the couch and back again over and over. It will only be a matter of time before she is tottering around on her own.

Well, hope everyone has a good Memorial Day weekend and travel safe if you are venturing out.
